Emerald Harvest Sturdy Stalk's key ingredient—silica—fortifies your plants and enriches the internal structures needed to support top-heavy plants laden with flowers and fruits. Because silica strengthens cells, silica helps plants withstand environmental and other stressors, so that they spend more of their energy creating blooms and buds. This results in a productive, vigorous garden with heightened resistance to pests, insects and pathogenic airborne and waterborne diseases.
The other main ingredient in Emerald Harvest Sturdy Stalk, potassium, helps your plants get the most benefit from photosynthesis, no matter with what light or where your plants are cultivated. Equally important in outdoor and soilless gardens, potassium is essential for strong vegetative growth and yields.
Use Emerald Harvest Sturdy Stalk as a supplement to a base nutrient series for guaranteed professional results.
Tips & tricks:
- Use as needed, rather than as part of a regular feeding schedule. For example:
- It can bolster crops during stressful times in the crop life cycle, such as transition or transplanting.
- It can support bulking buds during mid or late flowering.
- Use on top of (not in place of) a quality bloom booster. Although Sturdy Stalk does increase flowering, it does not contain sufficient potassium to serve as a stand-alone bloom booster.
- Use alone on a watering day or mix it last after other nutrients and then feed the nutrient solution to your crops immediately. The potassium silicate in the formulation is highly reactive with other nutrient ingredients.
Characteristics:
- Appearance: like lemonade.
- Aroma: slightly caustic.
- Texture: watery.
- Spoilage: its shelf life is 10 years or more.

Q: How does potassium silicate work?
A: Potassium silicate works by providing essential silicon to plants in a stable form. Silica, a key component of potassium silicate, strengthens plant cell walls, enhancing their ability to support fruiting and flowering. Silicon from silicic acid, which is unstable, is combined with other elements like potassium to create a stable fertilizer. This time-released silicic acid is absorbed by plant roots, travels throughout the plant, and is deposited in plant cells.
Q: What do the ingredients in Sturdy Stalk's unique formulation do?
A: The ingredients in Sturdy Stalk serve specific functions:
- Silica strengthens plant cell walls, promoting hardier tissues and better pest resistance.
- Silicon, along with calcium and lignin, holds plant cell walls together, resulting in tougher plant tissues.
- Potassium regulates water and activates enzymes, aiding in blossom and fruit development. It also prevents water stress in plants.
Q: Can I use Sturdy Stalk with my current nutrient line?
A3: Yes, you can use Sturdy Stalk with your current nutrient line. However, when using it alongside bloom boosters other than King Kola, be cautious not to overfeed potassium to avoid potential issues.
Q: What is the importance of potassium in plant growth?
A: Potassium is crucial for plant growth as it helps regulate water within plant cells and activates numerous enzymes. It plays a vital role in blossom and fruit development, ensuring plants have the necessary nutrients to produce heavy yields.
Q: How is potassium silicate produced?
A: Potassium silicate is produced by fusing high-purity quartz sand, which is nearly pure silica, with potassium carbonate (K2CO3) at a high temperature. This fusion process creates the stable compound known as potassium silicate, which is used as a nutrient in plant cultivation.
